Google is launching a special edition of the Fitbit Air fitness tracker, created in collaboration with the game Pokémon Sleep. The tracker features a blue design with a print of a sleeping Pikachu and the Pokémon Sleep logo on the strap. Pre-orders begin on August 27, 2026, with the first units set to ship on September 15.
Design and Price of Fitbit Air Pokémon Sleep
The special edition Fitbit Air differs from the standard model primarily in its appearance. According to Google's description, it comes in a color called Sleepy Blue with a print of sleeping Pikachu directly on the strap. As noted by GamesRadar+, Pikachu is purely decorative, and functionally, the tracker does not differ from the base version.
The price of the special edition is $129.99, while the standard Fitbit Air without the special strap costs $99. The Verge lists the price as $129, while other media outlets report it as $129.99.
Where and When to Buy Fitbit Air Pokémon Sleep
Pre-orders are open starting August 27, 2026, at the Google Store and Target, both online and in physical stores. According to 9to5google, the special edition is available in the United States and Japan. A three-month trial subscription to Google Health Premium is included with the purchase, as reported by Android Authority.
Features and Connection to Pokémon Sleep
The Fitbit Air is a screenless fitness tracker that monitors sleep, steps, and workouts. It integrates with the Pokémon Sleep app via Health Connect on Android and Apple Health on iOS. According to The Verge, the Pokémon Sleep app supports dozens of wearable devices from Apple, Google, Garmin, and Samsung, and the game can be played without the tracker.
The special edition is released in celebration of Pokémon's 30th anniversary, with a special collection of trading cards scheduled for release in the same week. The Fitbit Air was originally launched in May 2026 as a lightweight health tracker featuring Gemini AI capabilities. This is the first special edition since the Stephen Curry model, which was released earlier in 2026.
